The Israeli army spokeswoman, Captain Ella, wrote on the “X” platform that the combat group of the 7th Brigade carried out concentrated raids in southern Lebanon during the last week, as part of what he described as efforts to strengthen the defense of the residents of the northern towns. It indicated that these forces, operating under the command of the 36th Division, carried out field operations aimed at destroying Hezbollah's military infrastructure. She added that the forces of the Seventh Brigade have so far managed to eliminate dozens of elements and destroy dozens of infrastructure, including a weapons warehouse, a command headquarters, and observation sites. She explained that the Northern Command is continuing its preparations to accommodate additional forces during the next week, in accordance with the directives of the Chief of Staff. It also pointed out that the Golani Brigade forces have completed their deployment, and will be ready to receive new orders after a period of reorganization and rest, according to an assessment of the situation. She concluded by saying that the activity of the forces in what he described as the advanced defense inside southern Lebanon constitutes an “additional layer of protection” for the residents of the north, stressing that the army will continue its operations against “the party” in parallel with targeting Iran and what it described as its arms in the region.
